to the global economy with mike's cancer for a no holds barred look at the global financial headlines kinds a report. on larry king now to judge judy she's been behind the t.v. bench for seventeen seasons i have a subliminal message that once we help you get off your butt and help yourself plus we'll talk politics gun control and much more how to take a test to give up at a cool but you can call and buy a lethal weapon including a small fight with nothing more than your driver's license judge judy is next on larry king now. judy sheindlin is an old friend she's not old just the relationship is old she's the presiding judge on judge judy gearing up for its seventeenth season on

september tenth the number one syndicated show on television so happy for her and i welcome her to larry king thank you have a life full of me to be sitting opposite you again we've been through a lot together over the over the many years in a little while i want to talk about the horrific news out of colorado but first some other things are you. surprised that your own success every day every day but you know after a while when you feel good it's like having it's like having a bad back ache you know it feels bad every day but once it goes away goes away you hardly think about it but well i used to pinch myself every day and then it was once a week and it's once a month but every once in a while and i'm lying in bed and i seated myself how did this all happen you look as yourself now as a judge or a television personality both. i you know having enjoyed these two fabulous careers. i know that i'm

a lawyer i think still think like a lawyer i know that what we do is entertainment and it's not entertaining nobody's going to watch and that would be the business but i don't have a script like you don't have a script we talk and we talk and evidently a language that people find appealing so they keep coming back so i know it's entertainment as well but i think with both sides of my brain what's it like to. no longer have any financial worries to. better than not having it but you know larry you appreciate things more you do and i was saying to somebody recently there was a time for the great majority of my life that jerry and i would go shopping we go into a department store and i would say child wish i could afford to buy that i you know people who spend hundreds of dollars on a pair of shoes i thought were crazy should be committed where you do and when you

do have the wherewithal to buy what you want i find that it's it no longer has an appeal for me i couldn't wander into a store and i would say what do i need that for you know i have a shirt of harm and i find that i wear the same things is there anything you splurge on. and i splurge on my children and grandchildren. i like to know that they are secure and that at least the financial stresses that so many young people have of college loans not being able to get out of their parents' house because they can't afford rent that those stressors hopefully i can help them out with so that they can move on with that little bit of stress free on the other hand you really have to worry that if you take that away from a young person and they don't have that hunger in their belly they may lose the drive to succeed it has to be a balance couple things about the show that the productions of it will pay whatever

the settlement is right production company will pay the judgment if there is a judgment but most often if the case is dismissed it's dismissed and the person who brought the lawsuit gets nothing at all so i think very infrequently is it about money it's more about the vindication of some wrong or perceived wrong that drives people to come here get bored lever you know how do you know no i don't know but i get different people use the different cases every cases every case is every case is different every person that you want to view is different. and everything there and often challenging you think you've improved on what we think of as right been wrong in this country you certainly have had some effect well you know i have a subliminal message. could you can't be on that long and the kind of work that i do without having the message in my messages take responsibility for what you do if

you have children be prepared to support them you have to pay your taxes you have to be a productive citizen if you having a temporary setback we is a good community as a good country and good citizens will help you but once we've helped you get off your butt and help yourself that's my message and if that's right and wrong well then i'll do a me a copper for you but there are more people in this country that appreciate that then appreciate those folks who seem to be on the taking and always we were tough family court judge yes that's a tough element of law. review a federal judge wants to so when the problem he faces when he was of it was a family court judges are you trained to who gets the child in

a custody suit will issue learning come from. well i think you're learning comes from the very lawyer instinct. not coming with any predisposition we are supposed to in this country treat mothers and fathers the same with regard to custody no one is has a less equal position however when i practiced in the family court and then was later a judge in the family court i found that that law was honored in the breach. most judges and most psychologists that serve the court always thought that the mother was better and i didn't always find that that was true if you want full time responsibility for a child and you're prepared to accept that as a guy which is not a natural role for a guy more of a for nurture or. and what we perceive is a nurturing mother there has to be a reason so i think that you have to have a mix of commonsense you have to know the law but you have to have the six answer

people the great louis nizer i'm sure i interviewed him quite a few times a great great lawyer said that the worst cases he stopped doing them were divorce and custody cases that the hatred in that courtroom was worse than the victim of a crime sitting begins behind the person who committed the crime not so you had to perceive in cases where people hated each other people hated each other and that and some of the other cases that family court has jurisdiction over equally as difficult you know we deal with the terminations parental rights in family court and you it was always hard for me to understand them a man was convicted of a triple murder he's in jail he has three little kids one of the people he murdered was the mother of these three children and yet he's fighting tooth and nail so that his parental rights will not be terminated to those children even though he knows

he's never going to be able to parent them but he doesn't want anybody else to parent them is it on bug mind. you only work five days a month you make all is money you cut your living in venice you live in jackson hole i live in connecticut you have a private plane your five days a month what what how did you get this game i don't know i don't know why you were occasionally what do you do you know we do ten cases a day we do a week's worth of programming in a day. which you know is a lot of work for four people in this entertainment industry but not a lot of work for a family court judge i used to do sixty cases a day you know you started nine o'clock in the morning and you worked and it was a grind and you took twenty minutes for lunch and you came back and you did what you had to do so i'm used to getting things moving i had really good training before we talked about having done cases in your own court the most mind boggling

thing to me is the second amendment what were they talking about when you talk about a militia or your right to have a gun while the eye of i don't like to talk about my personal things but my other guy from scotland yard wrong ones who could not comprehend that americans could go in and buy handguns it was beyond his belief sense will you make of this colorado what do you make of this i don't know because i don't think anybody can understand what goes on in the mind of a madman a minute who would could contemplate doing something like that and yet today i had two cases that i tried in my television courtroom two cases that involved guns one of them was a lovely man who's next door neighbor had dogs that he perceived to be vicious who had according to him traumatized his family over the course of several months well

he opened up his garage door one day and the dog came calling to him charging at him he took out his twenty two which he had in his pocket she wasn't supposed to because it was supposed to be a house gun he didn't have a carry permit. and he shot at the dog towards the dog didn't hit the dock but hit his neighbor's garage across the street his neighbor. sued him to get the money to fix the garage door and he turned around and sue the owner of the dog who what was the cause of him shooting the guy ha interesting so i said to him what if there was a child behind that garage door what if when you took out your gun instead of scaring the dog you hurt somebody you killed somebody.

sympathetic he said you have to protect my family i said you may have to protect your family but there's a reason that we require people to have a permit to carry a weapon whether it be training whether it be licensing because that was surely poor judgment on his part to take out a gun in a busy neighborhood and shoot a gun what do you make of the fact americans access to getting guns it seems absurd i really think that if you have if you are able to pass a test first an i.q. test and then a test about the gun and then a psychological test or a psychiatric test but before you can get your hands on a weapon you have to establish that at least there's some reason and that you are capable person i mean my grandson just had to take certification to go scuba diving you know you have to take a test to give a pedicure but you can go and buy

a lethal weapon including an assault rifle in many places with nothing more than your driver's license it's written that part of it to me is ridiculous that you can do it with impunity you can get you have access to these kinds of weapons with impunity how many cases in america is a home invaded by a thief carrying a weapon threatening your house i bet none today. maybe one what do you mean gun what do you need a handgun for. i don't know i don't know now there was somebody who said that in the theater in colorado if there was one person who had a gun that was well trained they might have taken down this lunatic or missed him and hit it off the wall i love the people but this lunatic was so armored how to get all the ammunition he thought it got legally legally through the mail that cruz mailed crazy it's crazy and went and thousands of rounds and when questioned

somebody said well if you talk of practice that's not unusual to buy thousands of rounds of ammunition right coming up judge judy and i discuss our plans to take over the internet and she'll answer your question stay with us. please take another look very hard to take a. look. at that act with her their little. bit.

of a political. but i suspect. that you know the price is the only industry specifically mentioned in the constitution and. that's because a free and open press is critical to our democracy shrek albus. in fact the single biggest threat facing our nation today is the corporate takeover of our government and across several we've been hijacked why handful of transnational corporations will profit by destroying what our founding fathers once built up my job market and on this show we reveal the big picture of what's actually going on in the world we go beyond identifying the problem to try to fix rational debate in a real discussion critical issues facing america to find the book ready to join the

movement then walk away from the big picture. play. cross talk rules and if they're going to you can jump in anytime you want.

plus time of the new alert animation scripts scare me a little bit. there is breaking news tonight and we are continuing to follow the breaking news. alexander's family cry tears of joy at your grave things out there that there had to be added red dark in a court of law around online is a story made for a movie is playing out in real life. bradley judge judy seventeen years well we were surprised that john roberts swung the supreme court the other way on the health care bill yes i think it was

a tax and therefore. yes it was that was sort of cute. finding all of you finding ways not to buy if you're taxed you're for the taxed or find one or find. you know. it's really no different from the federal government giving you money to build aid to buy build roads in but you have to enforce the speed limit on public highways if you choose not to enforce the speed limit then you're ok the money. you don't get the money we surprised at the decision i was. then again you know i'm never surprised at the court now the court and in the jury right you don't work for office you have a come on judy never. and there's and there's a valid reason i don't think that any elected official. couldn't really make

substantial change because the process of change is so cumbersome and when you've been a family court judge like i have and in the family court for twenty five years and then this wonderful job for seventeen years it's like a monarchy you know you make a decision and that's it and then you walk away you get up and you walk out new say now you deal with it i made it i made the decision but as president as governor as mayor you have so many checks and balances even if you want to do the right thing and even if what you plan on doing is the right thing getting it done is virtually impossible john kennedy once said where the people are mostly like is a kind of king we're both. and me into unfamiliar territory to me with this show on the internet which is kind of a flip to mail me joining every minute of it and you know i have a website what would julie dot com tell me about that i was so afraid of this what i call the machine of the people call it

a computer. i could not figure out how to work it and i didn't for fifteen twenty years and then i decided you know what you really have to this is this is the twenty first century and either going to get with it or you're going to be booted out of it so i said you know what i would like to find out what other people think about issues that really interested me over the last forty years of work. and i think that sometimes people would be interested in my responses to some of the questions that plague us do you have a pre-nup or do you not have a pre-nup do you live with the guy did not live with the guy when do you get divorced and who gets the kids all of those are where we are in this complex world of you know first marriages second marriages children stepchildren half siblings and all the other things where are you laid to rest up you know where it is oh you're in the middle you're into it so i pose questions on what would you do say

twice a month and you tell me your stories i want to hear your stories maybe some of your stories in the way you've handled your finances your stepchildren your former spouse whatever issue is that they were talking about maybe it'll help somebody else maybe it'll guide so i'm great and i'm having a good time with it it's like a voyeur into somebody else's life are you technologically savvy absolutely not me i've never tweeted twittered oh i text you do i don't know how to do that i did i don't type but i did do you dictated to somebody that does or does not well you know i don't know how to do it well i don't know how to do what i'm supposed so you did the nothing you typed regional thing i do not text i do not text i think the texting is gone when they open up the time capsule for two thousand and two thousand two thousand and twelve two thousand and twenty they're gonna find that what brought down us as

a civilization is texting because. there's no person involved and nothing can do it you can get out of originally doing the other thing and you sit in restaurants with people and say they are share that at the line of a dinner alone i'm with six people but i'm alone we have some questions from twitter and facebook and read it for you christopher from reddit says are you a libertarian you always come across as someone who is for personal responsibility you can see these are the libertarian i don't i don't like to put a label on it i think that having personal responsibility his just the right thing to do why do you have to put a label on it i think that that's where so much of our politics goes off these days you know if you say something if you say you know what i think that if all you can afford to have a street children that's all you should have is three children they say you're a conservative you're a conservative therefore you are. it's ridiculous and this civilized discourse has disappeared because we try to put labels on people whose opinions we don't

necessarily agree with travis on facebook gas do you like the people's court but we did that show for you when you were just judge who's the guy who goes to a judge wapner and i like it's way up now but joe klein started it he started it he started it he broke the ground he's not crazy about make no not you guys in that he doesn't like no doesn't like my style. what do you make of all the shows well you know i think that. since the last like since the law is something about which everybody can offer an opinion i mean you can sit here and you can ask non warriors what they thought of the united states supreme court case what they think about gun control what they think about the death penalty what they think about a variety of things that affect the law and you don't have to be a lawyer to give an answer so i think that that's why court chose a popular john from read it as well as the most difficult case in jail of

a case in which you made a decision went back and thought that i do the right thing was this correct or make a mistake you know i have a case if i you ask me what was my most difficult case that i ever had to try and i don't know how much time we have to we have a little bit of time to have a limit the minute we have a minute it was a case involving a russian woman who lost her child lost a child to the system in new york and it was a case that lasted over seven or eight years with a lot of other judges and it came to me to try to do what i perceived to be the right thing and it was gut wrenching heart wrenching case and i ultimately returned this little boy to his mother and he was very happy and comfortable in his new home it was a part case do judge jury couple of quick things as you help your little scale issue yeah what a year and a half ago i had a little scary i think everybody else was more scared than i was and then i would find god worse yet ok we are dense some shows with the saying we call if you only

knew so what's your most embarrassing moment. of my most embarrassing moment was my third year in law school where i had answered a question of the professor the day before so i knew what wasn't my turn so i sort of didn't prepare and the next day he called on me again and the only thing i could say to him was you called on me yesterday. i said i have nightmare a food you hate the most. food i love all food actually i don't like anything that crawls you know somebody handed me a you know a bug to eat that was covered with chocolate that would not happen but other than that if a boat doesn't eat me i eat it i hate eggs the first thing you thought about when you got up this morning. was it too late to to go to the gym. weirdest talent do you have a talent we don't know about you sing in the shower i sing all the time and i have

a terrible voice but i remember the words all the old songs from the fifty's and sixty's i don't remember what i did yesterday but the songs i remember best advice you ever got do the right thing and the right thing and happen do you give the same advice to others all the time they were pleased to be wherever i am. that's judy first person ever kiss your member's name marvin marlon high school marvin probably junior high school i was precocious because failure. i don't think that there are any failures i think just learning experiences biggest success the show. now i think my biggest success and my family biggest regret i don't have and oh i have a regret but it's not my regret i am sad that my parents didn't get to see all this

stuff that they were born around loch enough a little julie yeah i would i think about that i'm hoping that they're watching from someplace is there something no one knows about you. there's a lot of stuff that people don't know about me and that's the way it's going to stay you know i know have you always been this out so all i buy had a great gift that i probably part d.n.a. and probably nurture which was my father gave me a great sense of myself he said anything you can do anything you want to do you can do you are the best you are the most terrific of the most poised short is wonderful . and he made me feel terrific and i took that with me the rest of my life so i was fortunate one of thing ima marvins last name levine marvin wolverine where was this in brooklyn we're in brooklyn. well i lived on ocean

lives. the. rules in effect that means you can jump in anytime you want. a little any. well kind of breaking the set i'm having martin old guys it's been eight days and the government shutdown and close its doors for business and then eight hundred thousand federal employees have been lingering without a national parks monuments in the store graveyards all closed what do you cancels drum circles ordered and kindergartners plainly both looking for there is one group of federal employees deemed is so vital to this country that they have been ordered back to work now you probably think i'm talking about safety inspectors considering

how ninety one percent of imported seafood isn't being checked and the fact that three miners have already died since the shutdown because of lack of oversight on the job but no i'm talking about the industry that this government favors the most defense secretary of defense chuck hagel recently ordered most of its three hundred fifty thousand civilian defense contractors back to work citing that they are so critical to protecting national security they have got to keep the military industrial complex move and keep them happy after all war is what's funny in this economy am i right look i'm not knocking the fact that people are getting their jobs back that's a good thing what's ridiculous is why defense is more of a priority then a safety and education what's absurd is needed an oil barons to keep headstart afloat you heard that right an ex enron executive just.
